So I've noticed one of the dwarves has gotten a bit more assertive in the last week or so. He's the biggest or near the biggest in the bunch, and his fins have been a very bold red in comparison with the rest, who are more normally a somewhat faded reddish hue.
This morning when I got home from work, did lights on and morning feeding, I noticed he had what could only be described as an orange-toned 'racing stripe' up from his snout along the front half of his back, which seemed to be pulsating. He was also being, for lack of a better word, assertive. He didn't chase anyone around at feeding so much but he's been very back and forth across the tank and sort of chasing around the other 'bows a bit. The pulsating orange racing stripe was definitely something new to me. I'll try and grab pictures of it later if I can find where the wife hid the camera, but has anyone heard of something like this at all?
